U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett is preparing to sell merchandise following her verbal altercation with fellow federal lawmaker Marjorie Taylor-Greene.
So we are going to drop ‘A Crockett Clapback Collection.’ This collection will feature various swag that includes random things I’ve said. The money will go to ensuring that we have a Democratic House! Give me a little time to really get the swag online,” she wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“If you have things you want to see come to life let me know. Post graphics or just phrases that you want to see.”

On Thursday, May 16, 2024, the congresswoman engaged in a verbal back-and-forth with her colleague, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, during a House Oversight Committee hearing.
“I’d like to know if any Democrats on the committee are employing Judge [Juan] Merchan’s daughter?” Taylor-Greene asked.
“I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading,” Taylor Greene countered.
U.S. Representatives Jamie Raskin and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez attempted to strike Taylor-Greene’s comments from the record, but were unsuccessful and the meeting continue with a comment from Crockett.
“I’m just curious. To better understand your ruling, if someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody’s bleached-blonde, bad-built, butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?” she asked.
Seventy-two hours removed from the viral back-and-forth, Crockett has no regrets about what she said in response to Taylor-Greene’s comments about her appearance.
“I don’t, because here’s the thing,” she said during a recent episode of CNN’s State of the Union.
“I signed up to be a member of Congress. That didn’t mean that I was supposed to walk into a position where I’m going to walk in and be disrespected.”
